• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

MSFS20 Real terrain elevation mesh

Hi all, Is there anyway to disable the auto flattening of an entire airfield area?

I know its a sim feature created to avoid satellite elevation scans errors, but on some areas there are not elevation glitches and the original terrain resolution mesh is much more accurate and inmersive.

I know about the Falloff distance option, but it needs to be applied for each element in the airfiel. I wonder if there is a parent element to control all others and dissable the flattening for the entire airfield.

Some examples:
This is the elevation mesh at this moment when you are flying in the sim.

And this is when I open the scenery editor and I load an object inside the airfield, automatically the mesh resolution increases exponentially

This is the real elevation xD
